Crimps are a better solution - if they are crimped adequately RE solder...https://youtu.be/o0j_bQx0s7I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironically, it says "crimped insufficiently" in the description of the recall fault haha, just sufficiently crimp it to repair, you'd think.

Crimps are fine for terminating a cable or maybe joining 1 or 2 but 5? No..will always get a higher resistance than solder as a crimp simply does not penetrate. Solder is also fine with heat, takes quite hot direct contact to get it to flow, once heat shrunk with a heat shrink that contains a sealent compound its very unlikley to fail. Fire rated heatshrink that contains a resin is also avalible that will take a direct toasting for 2+hrs... Seen soldered 3 phase connections on large fans in bloody harsh environments supporting 80+ amps(start up) no worries. Better than a cumbersome house hold connector anyway..I dont know why I bothered writing any of that given you still maintain crimps are the go even after watching a video on a saftey recall for my exact problem that says otherwise.......
